Puerto Galera has recently hit the international tourism limelight,
given the "The Most Beautiful Bay in the World" award for
2005 by the UNESCO, following its presentation in Agadir, Morocco last
November 2004. Puerto Galera is the 32nd bay worldwide to get the award
and the third in Southeast Asia after Nha Trang Bay and Along Bay in
Vietnam.

Puerto Galera is famnous for the great scuba diving
, but look at what one of our customers wrote to us:

Mark: "btw: I missed the golfing from the roof at
teh resort, I went snorkling and fish feeding instead - that's something
you should promote on your site :-) the snorkling at the giant clam site
was better than most of the dives! and the fish feeding is also great
fun. "

PARTY HARDY!

You'll love the Puerto Galera nightlife! Party away the night in
tropical paradise. With bars, restaurants and clubs, you'll have a great
time.

Puerto Galera Nightlife | Party at the Bars in Puerto Galera

When it comes to the Puerto Galera nightlife, there are many exciting
options to choose from.

Staying up till the early hours of the morning is a simple task as there
are ample opportunities for entertainment. It doesn¡¦t
have to break the bank either, as the Philippines is very cheap. You
can stay out all night for little more than the price of a meal back
home.

Most bars and nightlife options are focused around the two main tourist
areas ¡V Sabang and White Beach.

Puerto Galera Nightlife in Sabang

Sabang is one of the numerous barangays (small town) in the area of
Puerto Galera. It¡¦s packed with nightlife and bar option
sand live music /disco venues

During the evening, Sabang is busy with activity. If you¡¦re
searching for a place to drink, you don¡¦t have to go far.
The most popular bars are a little way back from the beach, but they
are very easy to find.

Whether you¡¦re looking for a romantic evening in a first
class restaurant, cheap drinks in a bikini bar or a wild night dancing,
Sabang has you covered.

Most nights, if you listen carefully, you¡¦ll hear live
music somewhere, often reggae or an acoustic set. It¡¦s
worth finding the bar and having a listen as very talented musicians
frequent Sabang.

As far as Puerto Galera nightlife goes, Sabang focuses on the girly
bar scene. While the bars come and go regularly, there is usually 5
or 6 bars to choose from where you can watch hot Filipina girls strut
their stuff. The drinks are cheaper than the main cities, though more
expensive than the ordinary bars.

Narrow walkways allow easy passage to and from each venue. Sabang is
a great place for bar hopping with each bar being within a minute¡¦s
walk of the others.

While you¡¦re enjoying the Puerto Galera nightlife and
bars, make sure you try the Mindoro Sling! It¡¦s a deadly
concoction typically made with vodka or rum and should be consumed slowly

If you¡¦re in Sabang during the day, many of the restaurants
are open, as well as open-air bars and boutique stalls. During the high
season, there are also floating bars in the bay which make for an exciting
experience in tropical paradise. Catch the ferry or swim right up to
it.

The floating bars are a very different experience if you¡¦ve
usually spent most of your time in typical bars. The bar literally floats
upon the bay and comes complete with tables, drinks, food and videoke.
It¡¦s a big hit with many tourists, especially people who
come here for the Puerto Galera diving.

Puerto Galera Nightlife in White Beach

White Beach is one of the most popular beaches in Puerto Galera, particularly
with Filipino tourists. From March through May, hundreds populate the
beach and when Holy Week arrives, that number increases to the thousands.

For Puerto Galera nightlife and bars, White Beach is the more family-oriented
option, especially when compared with Sabang. Like Sabang, it¡¦s
10 minutes away on a motorbike from the most relaxed Puerto Galera resort,
Badladz Adventure Resort.

During the day, people convene on the beach for volleyball, massages,
sunbathing, swimming and jetskis. At night, the bars and restaurants
fill up with partygoers. Again, it¡¦s a great place for
bar hopping and you can dance away the night. At dawn, sit on the beach
and watch one of the best sunrises in the Philippines!

Many of the Puerto Galera bars in White Beach also serve the infamous
Mindoro Sling. There are also a number of tattoo parlors and souvenir
stores.

Eating - We like pizza at Vesuvius

SAILING

Learn To Sail Philippines

Sailing Courses In the Most Beautiful Bay in the World !

Puerto Galera offers one of the most beautiful destinations in the
World in which to learn to sail, with crystal¡Vclear, warm tropical
waters 365¡Vdays a year. Light to moderate sailing breezes are
almost guaranteed so students learn to sail faster and achieve greater
success. Since 2005 the PGYC has completed more than three hundred sailing
courses where students learn to sail, using the unique, made¡Vin¡VPuerto
Lawin sailing dinghy. Our students come from all around Asia and even
from as far as England, Alaska, Estonia, New Zealand and Australia.

The Lawin sailing dinghy design was selected specifically as the Puerto
Galera Learn To Sail boat because it has a standard mainsail¡Vand¡Vjib
sail plan, so that everything a sailing student learns here can be applied
directly on larger yachts everywhere.

Sailing courses cater for students of all ages (our youngest graduate
was 8 years old and our eldest so far was 54) and because Puerto Galera
is a mecca for all water sports, in between sailing courses students
can go scuba diving, windsurfing, snorkelling, jet skiing, kayaking
or simply bask in the beauty of Puerto Galera¡¦s mangrove
fringed paradise.

The Puerto Galera Yacht Club also offers an afternoon Wet Wednesday
Sailing Experience event throughout much of the year. Specifically designed
for those who don¡¦t yet know if they are ready for a sailing
course but want to see what it feels like to take control of a sailboat
and have some fun with like minded individuals. Once a month (or thereabouts)
this is extended to a whole day of fun on the water, with a sailing
expedition to a local beach, lunch, and a leisurely sail back to the
club in the afternoon. No previous sailing experience is needed for
either event. Novices are paired with experienced sailors in each sailboat
and a safety boat is with the fleet the whole time. It¡¦s
best to telephone call beforehand so that you know what the plan for
the day is and so the boats and lunch can be prepared.
